The Sesame Street Song Book: Elmo's Piano is an interactive songbook that features a toy piano keyboard. Children can develop their musical skills and hand-eye coordination by playing tunes with Elmo and other popular Sesame Street characters.This entertaining and educational book is designed for children ages 18 months and older. Each page features lyrics that are set to a familiar song and a simplified version of the melody's sheet music; children can use the keyboard to play along with the melody. The pages are displayed horizontally, which means that they rest directly over the piano keys. When the child presses an icon button, a melody will play. At the same time, a bright LED for each key lights up in sync with the melody so that children can follow along with their fingers. The Sesame Street Song Book: Elmo's Piano also enables children to play a song on their own by matching the colorful musical notes in the book to the piano keys. Or they can use their imagination to compose new songs on the piano. The book includes these nine fun songs, with lyrics: Play, Play, the Keys Right Here Hands and Fingers, Not Your Toes Oh, That s a Very Big Cello Abby Waves Her Hand Bert Be Nimble Blow, Blow, Blow Your Horn Grover Rings a Bell Where Is Oscar? This Is the Way We Make a BandThe Sesame Street Song Book: Elmo's Piano has a sturdy cover and heavy board pages that withstand rough handling. Children can prop up the book s front cover to make it look like a grand piano. The book comes with three replaceable long-life AG-13 batteries and conforms to the safety requirements of ASTM F963-03.

This book was handed down from a friend to a friend to a friend, so we got it pretty well used. Therefore, yes, the binding was torn/broken and one of the keys doesn't work all the time and sometimes there seems to be a connection problem and the sound is muffled or fuzzy. But I cannot comment on when that happened. What I can say is that this is a great book for a wide variety of ages and it got my 5-year-old son interested in the piano and he even learned a few songs by heart. The great thing about this book is that it has three functions. First, you touch a key and it plays a song. Next, the keys light up and when you touch them, you are playing the song. Lastly, the keyboard just functions as a regular piano and you can read the "notes" in the book to play the song on your own. Or you can just bang on the keys and play around (younger children).Beware, there is an updated version of this same book by the same publishers (Sesame Street: Learn to Play Piano with Elmo), but the updated version only has one function: a keyboard and the notes. So, the new version is really much more for older children and, truly, for those who really want to learn a few songs on the piano. I would say 5 years and older. Sure, younger kids could bang around on the keyboard, but that gets boring pretty fast.Bottom line: order this version as long as it's still available. A lot of the other titles (Pooh, Dora, Mickey, Hello Kitty, princess) are only available used now.
My 15 month old loves the books that make music when he pushes a button so this book is perfect for him! He likes that he can push a button to hear music, but can also push the keys to make his own music. This a great book!
Its a great book that plays songs for them or allows them to play on the keys like a piano. Lots of fun for little ones!
This gift was just what I was looking for! Children love this Elmo Piano song book. They can either use the keyboard independently or press a button above the keys for a song to begin. Toddlers really enjoy being about to make music with the touch of a button or key and dance to the music. While the song is playing the keys light up for the older child to follow along and play the notes. I was replacing a similar product that cost three times as much! This was a good value.
Of all the little activities I got for my children to entertain them on a recent long car ride, this was the biggest hit. The buttons with the musical instruments on them play the full song, and then the keys below light up one at a time to indicate which key to hit to play the song on your own. Color-coded sheet music accompanies this above in case the kid is inclined to learn to read music (i.e., the notes on the sheet music are the same color as the bar above the correct piano key). My 4 year old, loved to learn to play as intended. My 2 year old just liked to hear the music played for him. Both kids love Elmo. The only things I didn't like were that 1) They made up strange Sesame Street-centric lyrics to recognizable songs. I'd rather have had the traditional lyrics displayed, and 2) A few of the songs had a note or two that was unexpected (for instance the music went up when it should have gone down). I think this was maybe due to the limited key board, but it was kind of jarring.
My kids have this but it's the Dora version and they loved it so much that we purchased this Elmo one for my 18 mth old Goddaughter. I did have to request a replacement because the first one was damaged but  got the new one shipped right away and I didn't have to pay return shipping. The replacement is perfect! My kids have attempted to play with it even while it's still shrink wrapped closed! I even caught my husband playing the piano part of it!I like that you can change the batteries on it. It takes the standard sized small cell batteries that you can purchase from  for less than $2 for a 10 pack. The book is nice because it has songs that the kids can play on the piano or they can press the different buttons to have it play the song on it's own. I definitely recommend this book!
My 17 month old grandson loves music and Elmo so I bought this for him. He loves it. Multiple ways to play with it. Keys will light up and if child touches them in order it plays a song. Can push the instrument picture and music automatically plays with that instrument. My only complaint was with the batteries. It was a hot day when the USPS delivered the book and it wasn't working. After waiting several hours to allow the book to maintain room temperature it still didn't play so I opted to purchase new batteries...worked fine after that.
My 1 y/o loves this book! He loves to watch the keys light up as the songs play. He pushed the keys and loves that he can make the piano play. He's a little too young to grasp the concept of pressing the keys that light up to play the song on his own, but he loves to do it with me. This book has become a new favorite!
